如何重定向.nuget文件夹？ 和nuget包与SDK nuget包的区别

Question

I'm suffering from changing default .nuget packages directory.
I want to change default nuget folder because It seems grow bigger and bigger. and It now occupies 5.0 GB in my OS main Drive C.
so, I cut and copied .nuget folder from users\\nuget to secondary Hard Drive D.

and then, I think that I did redirect it with solution package management.
below is picture of it.

and below is .xml source of Nuget.Config file in my %AppData%Nuget

<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
    <add key="Package source" value="D:\.nuget\packages" />
    <add key="Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages" value="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackages\" />
  </packageSources>
  <config>
    <add key="repositoryPath" value="D:\.nuget\packages" />
  </config>
  <packageRestore>
    <add key="enabled" value="True" />
    <add key="automatic" value="True" />
  </packageRestore>
  <bindingRedirects>
    <add key="skip" value="False" />
  </bindingRedirects>
  <packageManagement>
    <add key="format" value="0" />
    <add key="disabled" value="False" />
  </packageManagement>
  <disabledPackageSources>
    <add key="Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages" value="true" />
  </disabledPackageSources>
</configuration>

the problem is, when I compiled my UWP Project - just blank UWP.
then It starts to download something. I don't Know how to Stops to download nuget packages.
It appeared again with Users\\Nuget 3.0 GB.

How can I stops downloading nuget in C drive user\\nuget? and can I set my Visual Studio so that It should find or download nuget packages from or to specific folder?

and Also I don't understand difference between user\\nuget and ProgramFiles\\Microsoft SDK\\NugetPackages. below is picture of them.

can you explain me what is the difference between user\\nuget and Programfiles...nugetpacakges..?

Thanks for reading.

This is the global packages folder, not repositoryPath . You can configure it via the globalPackagesFolder config property:

<config>
    <add key="globalPackagesFolder" value="D:\.nuget\packages" />
</config>
